Register Building a startup is rarely a linear path, and often, the most valuable lessons come from the challenges that aren’t shared in a polished pitch deck. As an early-stage founder, you might be navigating growth without the backing of a university spin-out or trying to identify investor risks before they become roadblocks. Join Innovation Factory for an honest, “no-fluff” entrepreneurship workshop featuring Latchmi Raghunanan, CEO and Founder of Maman Biomedical. This interactive Ask Me Anything (AMA) session pulls back the curtain on the startup journey, offering you a safe space to ask the tough questions and gain clarity on your own path to commercialization. What you’ll learn This session is designed to provide you with immediate, relatable insights into the realities of scaling a young company. During this AMA, you will: Identify strategies to build credibility and market visibility as a new venture. Explore the process of making strategic pivots to accelerate your time to market. Understand how to navigate growth effectively without traditional university spin-out advantages. Discover how to address investor risks early and plan for long-term commercialization. Apply practical advice from a fellow founder during an extensive live Q&A session. Why it matters At Innovation Factory, our mission is to build stronger founders by fostering a supportive innovation ecosystem. Startup Confessions provides a unique platform for peer-to-peer learning, allowing you to bypass common pitfalls by hearing directly from those currently in the trenches. Connecting with experienced founders like Latchmi helps demystify the entrepreneurial process and empowers you to make more informed, strategic decisions for your business.
